2 servings
- 1 ½ cups water
- 2 black tea bags
Ingredient noteBlack tea is only a FODMAP concern when brewed very strong, since natural sugar levels rise with brew strength; this recipe steeps 2 tea bags in about 2 1/2 cups of liquid, weaker than a typical cup of tea, so a serving is likely fine on a low FODMAP diet. If you prefer to always avoid black tea bags, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 inch fresh ginger, thinly sliced
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 6 green cardamom pods, lightly crushed
- 4 whole cloves
- 4 whole black peppercorns
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
For serving
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Combine the water, ginger slices, cinnamon stick, crushed cardamom pods, cloves, and black peppercorns in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 8 minutes, until the liquid is fragrant and a deep amber color.

Add the tea bags and coconut milk to the saucepan. Raise the heat to medium and bring the mixture just to a gentle simmer, then remove from the heat immediately and steep for 3 minutes.
